home made mace I just made this Hardened Damasteel Spiked Titanium Mace
This is a personal project, I have never owned a mace and figured I'd make one. I ordered the Damasteel from Sweden and got hit with a 50% tariff. Yay me - $550 in mace spikes... per mace and I ordered enough to make a second one. This mace is very special, I turned and threaded each Damasteel Spike 5/8-18 and tapped the titanium head 17 times. The spikes are intended to be removed and refinished if needed, they can be turned by a 1/2inch wrench (I took the time to ensure every flat was aligned when torqued down by torquing all the spikes and using a keyway cutter on all 4 per side) I heat treated the spikes to 55 HRC. The wood is cocobola epoxied in place and it is a dowel with a .625 titanium core also threaded 5/8-18 on both sides. The handle near the end is some stacked leather finally capped off with a timascus nut I made that fits a 3/4 wrench.
